Steps

  • Place flour on a surface and create a central well.
  • Mix 250g butter and salt into the flour until grainy, then work in water to form a marbled dough.
  • Roll dough into a ball, wrap, and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
  • Roll pastry into a 40x20cm rectangle, fold into thirds, turn, repeat, and chill for 30 minutes.
  • Perform two more rolling and folding turns, then chill for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 200°C.
  • Melt caster sugar in blini pans until golden-brown, then stir in the remaining butter and a pineapple ring.
  • Cut two pastry circles larger than the pans and tuck them over the pineapple.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
  • Simmer butter, brown sugar, and syrup in a pan until dissolved.
  • Remove sauce from heat and stir in lemon juice, cream, and coconut liqueur.
  • Toast flaked coconut in a dry pan for 2 minutes.
  • Serve tart slices with ice cream, sauce, toasted coconut, and mint.
